Men's Soccer Delaware Valley 3, Moravian
College 3 (2 OT) DOYLESTOWN (PA) - The Delaware Valley College
men's soccer team snapped a 17-game losing streak with a 3-3 tie against visiting
Moravian College in a non-conference game. The tie moved the Aggies' record
to 0-5-1 on the year while the Greyhounds saw their mark move to 2-4-1. Delaware
Valley looked as if it was going to break its 24-game winless streak (0-23-1)
as Mick Hannan scored off a Taeweh Witherspoon with 27:43 remaining for a 3-2
lead. It was Hannan's second goal of the season. It stayed that until
the final minutes when a Moravian player was pulled down in the Aggie box and
a penalty kick was awarded. Ryan Hess scored off the kick to tie the game and
send it to overtime. The Greyhounds held a 4-3 advantage in the two overtimes
but the Aggies nearly scored in the final seconds of the second stanza as a header
off a corner just went wide. Moravian opened the scoring just 14:39 into
the contest as Chris Dello Buono connected off a Louis Dollarton assist. However,
Delaware Valley followed with a pair of tallies to take a 2-1 lead into the intermission.
Zack DelaPena scored his second goal of the year off a Rachward Miller assist
with 21:50 remaining in the half and Matt Pierce notched his first tally off a
Pat Madigan feed with 8:25 to go. Dollarton tied the contest in the first eight
minutes of the second half. Moravian held a 35-16 advantage in shots and
an 8-5 edge in corners. Nick D'Amato stopped 15 shots for the Aggies while Ryan
Walker made six saves for the Greyhounds. |
